It has been determined that Trump is an average unladen swallow travelling northbound at his maximum sustainable speed of -3 Obama-cubits per second in the middle of a class 3 hurricane.

So....who do we think is winning so far?

I think Rand Paul has done well for himself tonight, as has Cruz. Rubio's taking a bit of a beating and Jeb Bush is meh. Kasich is nearly invisible.

CLOSING STATEMENTS!!

Rand Paul: The debt is too damn high!
John Kasich: Nobody wins without Ohio. I *am* Ohio. Ergo, I win.
Chris Christie: Terrorists tried to kill my family. Now it's time for payback. Coming to a theater near you!
Carly Fiorina: We had 9/11 in my company too! So I know what it's like!
Jeb Bush: Have you looked at my resume? It's really good.
Marco Rubio: For over 200 years, this has been a "special" country. Now, we face the threat of being merely an ordinary country like everywhere else on the planet.
Ted Cruz: Reagan was a badass. I will be Reagan II: Electric Boogaloo.
Ben Carson: What Rubio said. God bless America, because the rest of the world is a shithole.
The Donald: We're a bunch of losers. Have I mentioned we're losers? LOOOOSERS.

Closing Statements

Paul: "STOP SPENDING MONEY, STOP IT YOU WHORES, STOP IT!"
Kasich: "Ohio is the Godhead, I am Ohio, I am America."
Christie: "9/11 was terrible, and my thirst for vengeance will never die!"
Fiorina: "9/11 was really an attack on businesses like HP anyway, and I'm the Woman President not Hillary."
Bush: "None of these losers can beat Hillbama but me! You fools! Fuck it, I give up."
Rubio: "Remember my American Dream rhetoric, it isn't working out because of terrorists and nothing else, god I love masturbating to pictures of Reagan."
Cruz: "I am regressing to my inspirational speaking classes, and yes, masturbating to Reagan."
Carson: "Remember that I'm the only candidate who's spouting religious rhetoric this time around, and fuck leftists!"
Trump: "Great greatness, nothing is working right now, I'm Big Dick tonight."

I don't think anybody neccesarily outright won. Rubio and Cruz did well, Carson had a combination of actually doing well without any major gaffes while at the same time getting off easy.

Carson managed to sound less baked, but didn't really impress. He reminds me of that kid who never payed attention to the discussion in class, and then when he was called on, covered it up by just being really vague and sweeping and hoping that his comments could be interpreted as having some relevance to the discussion.


I thought Trump actually did pretty well. No particularly incendiary comments. Of course, that's because he has a comfortable lead right now. He seems to play nice when he's winning, and only turns into the slash-and-burn Trump when he's in a competitive race. That could backfire on him, if his supporters think he's getting too fat and cozy and nice because he has a big lead.

The wall would, ideally, be built around that situation.

Admittedly, it'd be cheaper to just build a wall around the White House and Congress to keep them safely contained.
